Student Sponsorships

Sponsorships help young Armenians from vulnerable rural families, working women, and students with high past academic achievements to access an ICARE education. Annual costs of educating one student (the value of a sponsorship) are:

  • Master of Agribusiness Program $ 8,000 per year
  • Undergraduate Agribusiness Program $ 5,000 per year
  • Enology & Wine Business Program $ 3,500 per year

It is also possible to set up a named endowment to sponsor one student annually. For instance, a $200,000 named endowment would generate enough income to support one MAB student each year.

Other Needs

Contributions to the following needs help ICARE achieve student success:

  • Technology. To replace equipment and for renovation of classrooms.
  • Summer internships abroad can be costly, and support is needed for travel to the U.S. and Europe.
  • ICARE students participate in local and international research to strengthen their knowledge and skills; these funds help support students in this activity.
